Clinton Says Obama Played Race Card on Him
In a last night, Bill Clinton defended his comments before the South Carolina primary -- saying that even Jesse Jackson had actually won the state twice -- claiming the Obama campaign "played the race card on me" with its immediate denunciation of his remarks.
At the end of the interview, when the former president must have thought he was off the air, Clinton had this to say: "I don't think I should take any shit from anybody on that, do you?"
Meanwhile, reports Obama "expressed shock" at Clinton's assertions this morning.
Said Obama: "Hold on a second. So former President Clinton dismissed my victory in South Carolina as being similar to Jesse Jackson, and he's suggesting that somehow I had something to do with it?"
